Awareness of trauma and the impact it has on physical and mental health has increased considerably and affects us all, directly or indirectly. In response to this knowledge, Teesside University's MA Trauma-Informed Practice gives students a comprehensive understanding of this topic which can be applied in practice to a variety of workplaces and settings, and makes them confident, critical, creative, adaptable, articulate and aspiring professionals.
The course takes a strengths based approach that is grounded in an understanding of and responsiveness to the impact of trauma, which emphasizes physical, psychological and emotional safety for everyone, and that creates opportunities for survivors to rebuild a sense of control and empowerment.
Content includes early childhood development and how this is impacted by adversity and trauma, ways in which we can mitigate and ameliorate this, and opportunities to apply this knowledge through topical and relevant practice-focused assessments. Students focus on a particular aspect of trauma-related practice that will be of value to their own professional development
Students develop the skills and knowledge to continue their professional, educational and personal development by consolidating, enhancing and extending their disciplinary expertise, experience and abilities. High levels of personal responsibility and self-direction are required to work with complex knowledge, theory and concepts.
